Yankees rookie outfielder Dustin Fowler sustained a ruptured patella tendon in his right knee during the first major league inning of his career, according to MLB.com's Bryan Hoch. He will undergo surgery overnight in Chicago.

In a game against the White Sox in Chicago that started four hours late due to a rain delay, Fowler careened into the rightfield wall in foul territory attempting to corral a ball. It’s unclear if the field conditions directly affected the play.
